We report a simple protocol that affords oxidative demethylation of N-methyl groups in N-methyl adenines (mA). The biologically compatible photocatalyst riboflavin prompts a highly selective C-H abstraction from N-methyl in adenines under the irradiation of a visible blue LED light, affording a novel and highly selective biomimetic demethylation of mA and related N-methyl adenine analogues.
我们报道了一种简单的方法,该方法可实现N-甲基腺嘌呤(mA)中N-甲基的氧化去甲基化。具有生物相容性的光催化剂核黄素在可见蓝光LED照射下,促使腺嘌呤中N-甲基的C-H发生高度选择性的抽象,从而实现了mA及相关N-甲基腺嘌呤类似物的新型高选择性仿生去甲基化。
